The Peripheral Role of CCL2 in the Anti-Nociceptive Effect of Sigma-1 Receptor Antagonist BD1047 on Inflammatory Hyperalgesia in Rats

Our recent study demonstrated that the CC-chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) present in primary afferent fibers (PAFs) plays an important role in the microglia-dependent neuronal activation associated with zymosan-induced inflammatory pain. The present study was aimed to evaluate whether BD1047 (a prototypic...
